I Do Not See How A Man

A Theory With Mathematical Beauty Is More Likely To Be Correct Than An Ugly One That Fits Some Experimental Data.

Just By Studying Mathematics We Can Hope To Make A Guess At The Kind Of Mathematics That Will Come Into The Physics Of The Future... If Someone Can Hit On The Right Lines Along Which To Make This Development, It May Lead To A Future Advance In Which People Will First Discover The Equations And Then, After Examining Them, Gradually Learn How To Apply Them... My Own Belief Is That This Is A More Likely Line Of Progress Than Trying To Guess At Physical Pictures.

I Think It Is A Peculiarity Of Myself That I Like To Play About With Equations, Just Looking For Beautiful Mathematical Relations Which Maybe Don't Have Any Physical Meaning At All. Sometimes They Do. At Age 60.

A Great Deal Of My Work Is Just Playing With Equations And Seeing What They Give.

There Are Always More People Who Prefer To Speak Than To Listen.
